Re: Elaine and her boys
"I didn't ask you if he was okay, but if things were okay between you two." Elaine sat down next to TJ. "He doesn't sound like he's trying to avoid you or like he's upset with you and that's already a step forward. Your dad was already thinking of ways to piss you off so you'd band together against him," she confided. "I might be considering the option."
Elaine sighed as TJ went on. "Doug is great with change, unless it's personal, but you're right, he does need time. I'm not very good with siting around and waiting, unfortunately." She turned to him, smiling. "When did you become so insightful?" She brushed his hair. "I miss our talks, although we never discussed dimension crossing and super powers. Dom called me Cyclops in a skirt. I can say that has never been used before, and the media has used plenty of names."
